WHY DOES IT HAPPEN?
Dr Ginni Mansberg explains that there are two main types of bladder leakage, which is where some urine comes out when you don’t intend for it to.
“Stress incontinence is when a weak pelvic floor allows wee to escape from the bladder when extra stress is placed on the pelvic floor – think sneezing, coughing, star jumps and skipping,” says Dr Mansberg. “Urge incontinence is an overactive bladder that can discharge some or all of its contents at the most random times for no obvious reason.”
She explains that for the latter you might frequently feel the need to go to the toilet, often through the night. Most women experience a combination of the two types of bladder leakage, which is called mixed incontinence.
